Been almost a year since that summer launch and we're all still traumatized by it.

I didn't think the summer collection was on other sites besides MAC's, I could be wrong on that though.It's so weird, for the summer one I wasn't into makeup that much yet but I was on Nordstrom I guess the day it came out and I was able to get all of them with no problem! No stalking whatsoever. Fall and holiday tho.....a whole other story
Oh that stinks! Hopefully the ones you get won't do the same as the ones you tested.But no allergic quality? I almost felt like my lips were starting to puff up a little, like something out of the Plushglass zone. Also, have you already experimented with primers and pencils underneath and if so, did it help? When I tried everything out over the weekend, I was pretty swamped, so I didn't do my usual chit chat, but honestly, I sort of felt like maybe I shouldn't even mention these lipsticks and what was up with that formula, in the first place. I honestly am keeping my fingers crossed that people don't have the sort of bad reaction I did with them, because whatever's in that formula sure as heck makes them look great….it's just super harsh as all get out on the lips.
Thanks! You tooThe packaging is def cute! I know, all the swatches got me droolin and anxiously waiting for my UPS to come! Enjoy your goodies!!
LOVE EVERYTHING!
I definitely got them from nordies lol ririboy heaux and riri woo right?? Maybe I did get them from Mac who knows lol I just know it was the easiest process ever! I cringe when I hear all of the horror stories!!I didn't think the summer collection was on other sites besides MAC's, I could be wrong on that though.
Welcome to SpecktraHi all, I've always just read along but seeing as how I've been along for another fun launch stalking, just wanted to join in to say everyone's swatches look gorrrrrgeous!! :eyelove: :clapping: I don't get my goodies til Monday but following along this thread is really helping me get through a really rough day, so just wanted to say thanks!!
I make the best of what these lippies do to me lol.I don't own Glam, but I seriously have never owned a lipstick that stained like DG and KYY, not even my grandmother's old lipsticks from the 50's. And I have a lot of strong lipsticks.
Well, that actually isn't true for DG, because the stain is bright neon pink red insanity, so it actually takes the pretty, bluish glowing quality of the lipstick and turns it down into a more normal reddened lilac in a pretty short amount of time. For me, I will have to reapply DG very frequently, unless I can get whatever the heck is going on on the lips under control.
That's the clear one, right? I'm for sure going to try P&P lip, since I've already got that one in the house, plus some soothing balm sunk in in advance.
Bijou is so beautifully smooth. I don't own another lip gloss quite like it. I tried to resist it, but it's just lovely. No settling in the lip lines either, just smooth like glass. Peachstock lipglass from AA was like this too. I like where MAC's lip glosses are going...
I'm glad you're OK with it. For me, this is beyond "pretty" stain and into nearly unacceptable menace territory instead, especially along with the puffy lip sensation. If it wasn't for the fact both KYY and DG were the best shades of neon pink and lavender for my skin tone that I've yet to encounter, I wouldn't have even bought them. My lips are still a bit thrashed from it, days later. That's not good, by my standards, and I hope I figure out how to avoid this issue, or I may wind up regretting owning these, no matter how beautiful they are. What we do for makeup…..
Im loving all these on you I could never pull it off . Gorgeous!!
yeah that was it, maybe I'm thinking of the first RRW launch.I definitely got them from nordies lol ririboy heaux and riri woo right??

Yikes! Not sure I am cool with that! Better prep those lips and be ready!I don't own Glam, but I seriously have never owned a lipstick that stained like DG and KYY, not even my grandmother's old lipsticks from the 50's. And I have a lot of strong lipsticks.
